The woman’s family members fear retaliation and are keeping their identities private in their moment of distress.
“She’s the sweetest, kindest, littlest old Indian lady who basically is a saint,” the victim’s daughter told the news station.
According to the report, the 74-year-old victim got into her car Friday around 11:30 a.m. It was only afterward, when the car was back in her garage in Franconia, Va., that her son noticed the markings on the vehicle.
